2. Focus on bettering yourself at work: There is never a better time to throw yourself into your work.  Sometimes you need a distraction from all the craziness going on around you. Bettering yourself at work and becoming even more successful can change the direction of the conversation and can also be the best way to prove to yourself that you still got it!
